Becky Selfe Invitational 2015

Abingdon, VA

Meet Information

My name is Mark Love and I am the Head Cross Country Coach at Patrick Henry High School in Glade Spring, Va. I would like to invite you to the 7th annual Becky Selfe Cross Country Invitational on Saturday, September 12th, 2015 at the 4-H Center on Hillman Highway between Meadowview and Abingdon.
Last years meet was the first one that we have had at the 4-H Center and even though it was very muddy from the rain, it was a successful meet and it is a great course to run a cross country meet. We hope that you will be able to attend the Becky Selfe this year. NOTE: THE HILL THAT CAUSED SO MANY PROBLEMS LAST YEAR BECAUSE OF THE RAIN HAS BEEN TAKEN OUT OF THE COURSE. THE COURSE WILL BE THE SAME EXCEPT FOR THAT SECTION. WE WILL BE BYPASSING THE HILL.
The 4-H Center is only 6 or 7 miles from Patrick Henry High School at Exit 22 (Enterprise Rd.) There is lots of open space, woods to run through, and it is very viewer friendly.
